2014 Champbell Hausfield 80 gallon compressor, It Works! Kinda

I am so awesome! No popcorn dude. It is not working yet.

Now I just have set the timing, adjust the valves and I'm thinking of converting the v belt to a serpentine or maybe a chain drive....

Chain drive!!!!!! Hell yeah!!!!

Convert to serpentine & chain drive with water driven paddle wheel.

While I like the idea of chain drive conversion, electric motors are sooo belly button. I vote for steam conversion. More torques!

I don't know how I did it but apparently my compressor is turning the oxygen that is been pumped into my compressor into liquid oxygen at the bottom part of the tank. There is air at the nozzle but the lower outlet on the tank is emitting a clear liquid. I'm going to let the media hear about this but I wanted you guys to be the first to know.....

I'm confused, I'm talking about liquid air, not water.....🤔

Sounds to me like the motor isn’t grounded correctly. When you plug your welder extension in, it completes the circuit allowing the motor to run.

I did some more reading yesterday cause it made no sense to me why all the guys setting up a 240v compressor used a common 2 pole breaker. Turns out I had the 2 pole breaker installed incorrectly. The way I had it installed was to use it for 2 120V circuits. It does send 240v volts by line 1 and 2 but it has no way to alternate the current to allow the motor to run. The way I need to install the breaker is like in the picture so it can alternate the current. I had the breaker installed in between the dividers.
